Corrected entry: When Jill gets home you can see her closing the door. When it cuts to her walking away from the door, you can see that it is a different door. (00:03:05)

Police Academy 6: City Under Siege (1989)
Corrected entry: When Hightower approaches the window of the bad guy in the poisonous gas room, there is nothing in front of the window. He then smashes it, lifts up Sgt Lassard to get him through the window, and then you can see Hightower stepping onto something out of shot so that he can get to the window.

Aeon Flux (2005)
Corrected entry: Sithandra has Modifications. She has hands instead of feet at the end of her legs. But when she and Aeon doing "acrobatics" while they try to break into the Goodchild HQ, you can see that the actress has feet and no modifications are visible. (00:15:40)
Correction: In every visible shot of her "feet", you can tell they are modified hands and not feet. But since she can move her "fingers" close together, it can give the appearance of feet in quick shots.

Futurama (1999)
Why Must I Be a Crustacean in Love - S2-E9
Corrected entry: When Fry says he'll lend Zoidberg his arm, he holds it up. It has the right hand, but bends like the left arm.
Correction: It's definitely bending like a right arm would.

Futurama (1999)
Why Must I Be a Crustacean in Love - S2-E9
Corrected entry: When Zoidberg cuts off Fry's right arm, it changes to a left arm lying on the ground.

South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut (1999)
Corrected entry: At the start of the film, Stan shows all his friends and his mother the newspaper cutting of the Terrence & Phillip movie poster. Watch it carefully, the picture is different every time we see it. (00:01:25)
Correction: The picture remains the same each time he shows his friends. The first time we see it, when he's asking his mom for money, the clipping is never held up close, so it's drawn a bit jumbled up so it isn't clear (just like how a real newspaper clipping would be hard to read from a distance).

South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut (1999)
Corrected entry: At the USO Show, Kyle asks Cartman a question. But for some strange reason, it's Stan's mouth that moves. (01:01:10)
Correction: If you're referring to Kyle asking "Did you shut the alarm off", Kyle's mouth is the one that moves. Just before that, Stan says "What, Cartman?" (And it's his mouth moving).

South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut (1999)
Corrected entry: When the boys are singing "What Would Brian Boitano Do?" Cartman says "Sh*t," but doesn't get shocked by the V-chip. Even though he is not on screen, he can be heard.
Correction: Cartman doesn't sing the line "Brian Boitano doesn't take shit", and you distinctly hear him join in only after, with "from anybody", just like he didn't sing the line with "ass" in it.

Waterworld (1995)
Corrected entry: When Costner blows up the Exxon Valdez with his flare, we get a shot of the deck from up high. Halfway through this shot, Hopper and his crew suddenly appear from nowhere, along with the railing he is leaning on.
Correction: While it is a weird looking shot, it's not a mistake, the camera has just pulled back far enough to reveal them. You can tell this is what happens because there are two objects on the deck and their position changes also, consistent with the camera angle changing.

Waterworld (1995)
Corrected entry: When preparing to address the people, Deacon puts on a hat. A few seconds later, the hat is suddenly missing.
Correction: He has simply taken his hat off before speaking to the people (which is a common thing, some people will remove their hat prior to speaking, even though they wore it to wave to a crowd). And he has plenty of time to do so while the camera is not on him.
27th Aug 2001
Waterworld (1995)
Corrected entry: In the opening scene where Mariner is sailing his boat into the distance, land can quite clearly be seen on the horizon up ahead.
Correction: That's not land, it's the empty space of sky between the horizon and the clouds. You can see the same effect later in the movie more when the 3 are eating the sea monster on the boat.

Breaking Bad (2008)
Gray Matter - S1-E5
Corrected entry: When Badger is demonstrating the "Helicopter" to Jesse, he spins the sign in such a way that he would be holding on to something in the middle of the arrow on his side. However, when he brings the arrow down, you can see that there is nothing he could have been holding on to. (00:03:00)
Correction: He doesn't "hold" onto anything, he puts his finger in the hole and spins it around his finger. You can see his finger sticking out as he raises the arrow up, in the middle of the "O" in TO.

Fantastic Four (2005)
Corrected entry: When Sue strips down on the bridge, Reed takes off just before Johnny bends down to pick up her clothes. He only grabs her shirt, jacket and pants. When we see Sue climb in the cab, she also has her shoes back. (00:33:50)
Correction: The shot also goes from her being naked to fully dressed, so enough time has passed that someone could have gone back for her shoes.
All we see is Johnny picking up a pile of clothes, we don't know if her took her shoes or not.
18th Nov 2006
Fantastic Four (2005)
Corrected entry: When Doom enters the elevator after arguing with Reed he is holding his gloves in his hands. In the next shot he pulls off a glove and punches the wall.
Correction: He's not pulling his gloves off, he's putting them on. He just punches the wall before putting his right glove on.
2nd Jul 2003
McHale's Navy (1997)
Corrected entry: When McHale is developing the pictures at his house, Maj. Vladikov fires a missile at the wall and makes a hole in it. The hole changes shape in the very next scene to a perfectly round hole.
Correction: The hole never changes shape nor is it ever perfectly round. In both the interior and exterior shots, you can see the bottom of the hole is a perfectly straight row of bricks.

The IT Crowd (2006)
Corrected entry: When Jen and Roy are playing Guitar Hero, it is very obvious that Jen isn't even pressing any buttons on the guitar. (00:02:25)
Correction: After viewing the scene, it is quite clear Jen is pressing the buttons.
20th Jun 2010
The IT Crowd (2006)
Corrected entry: It shows the three toilet cleaners standing motionless - the one on the left is standing backwards. In the next shot, he is now facing forwards and still motionless. (00:01:55)
Correction: They were not motionless, we see the guy with his back turn move a bit. Plus, the one with the eyepatch speaks. But it's not unreasonable to think the guy would turn around after being recognized, and there was plenty of time for him to turn around while off camera.
14th Apr 2012
SpongeBob SquarePants (1999)
Corrected entry: The show Spongebob Squarepants was originally made for adults.
Correction: This is just a plain lie and started as an Internet rumor. The story behind the rumor was Spongebob Square Pants was originally going to air on Adult Swim. However, Spongebob debuted on Nickelodeon in 1999 and Adult Swim wasn't even created until 2001. Additionally, creator Stephen Hillenburg already worked with Nickelodeon on a previous children's show and always wanted to continue working with Nickelodeon.
15th Oct 2011
Community (2009)
Corrected entry: During Jeff and the coach's pool game, Jeff starts off sinking bigs, then switches to smalls, then back to bigs throughout the game.
Correction: On the break a striped ("bigs") ball goes in, however we see Jeff shoot solids throughout the rest of the game. It is the coach who is shooting the striped balls, not Jeff.
31st Jul 2015
Pixels (2015)
Corrected entry: Duck hunt was front and center in this movie but was not released until '84.
Correction: Duck Hunt was only release on the NES platform in 1984. However, it was part of Nintendo's Laser Clay Shooting System and released in 1976.
